SATURDAY, JUNE 3, 1843. ,r"\o" 'oJ r, ii hope Lonl Powis will not be discouraged by the fato his Hill for the Repeal of the Union of the Sees of 1 ,T mgor and St. Asaph. The hearts of all good Church- | en are with him, and we trust he will persevere. Had ] e report of the Ecclesiastical Commissioners, recom- ending in 1S3G that act of spoliation, been deferred itil the year 1842, we firmly believe that no such ggestion would have been made as the suppression of Bishopnck in North Wales, and the despoiling it of its even ties, for the purpose of establishing a See in a istrict confessedly one of the wealthiest in the Empire, id utterly unconnected with the Principality. Th, commendation would now have run in the right direc- m. An Institution so holy and venerable would I,-It\ e, en spared to perform its functions, and enlarge its )here of usefulness in all its original integrity, and the liritual wants of Manchester would have been supplied f the creation of another Bishop, with a revenue derived om its own abundant resources or by other funds. But 1S30 the Government was "Liberal," the Church ithout protection, and the Bishops in alarm. To admit lother Spiritual Peer into the Upper House of Parlia- lent, when certain discussions were going on in the ower House, as to the retention of their seats by the ( dsting Bishops, was deemed an impossibility. To cut .1' nd contrive, to parcel and to divide, to patch and rend, lis was the order of the day—and the Bishops of Lon- on and Lincoln, who were members of that Commission, lough they confess the motive have not the courage to tracc their steps. We should like to see the Govern- lent boldly proposing the creation of a Bisho;) of lanchester, with a seat in the House of Lords. The j hssenters, and Liberals, and Infidels would wax wroth )r a moment—but strong in the justice of the case, and 1e spiritual necessity being beyond dispute, such a 'relate would now take his seat amidst the acclamations f his Peers, and the good wishes of the Clergy and jaity of the Church of England. The spiritual necessi- ies of the Church would find ample employment for nany additional Bishops, and here we stand hesitating bout the creation of o,ic, and finding its life only in the xtinction of anotner. If thre were deemed any con- titutional objection to the admission of a score more li,shops into the House of Lords, surely some such .rrangement as now exists with regard to Irish Bishops night obtain, and a certain portion of Prelates sit in ■otation for a specified time. But leaving such questions or the present, we do strenuously contend that the sup- pression, in the way proposed, of an ancient Bishoprick, s perpetuating, and in the worst possible way, the feel- ngs of estrangement which already exist between one portion of the population of these Isles towards the other, md exhibiting a great disregard for the religious welfare )f the Principality of Wales. The difficulty of creating 1 Bishop of Manchester is, we think, imaginary and t ;heorc-tical—the injury inflicted on the National Church ly the extinction of a Welsh Bishoprick, would be great, certain, and irremediable. The thought was the sugges- ,ion of cowardice and compromise, when the Church had alien on evil days," and we trust that the voice of I •emonstrance will induce the Legislature to repeal so much of an Act as relates to the union of the Sees of St. Asaph and Bangor. The Universities of Oxford and Cambridge have each expressed a strong opinion adverse; to this ill conceived measure—the former regarding it with h sorrow and apprehension," the latter with" fear and concern." Believing it, as we do. to be the offspring of an unnecessary compromise and ill-founded alarm, to the feelings of sorrow we cannot refrain to add the language of warm expostulation. The See of Sodor and Ma.i, once threatened, has been preserved by the strenuous efforts of men earnest in the cause of religious truth, and this should be an encouragement to perse- verance in the present strong and conscientious oppo- sition to "An Act," of which the Church has uttered, by her Clergy and Laity, an emphatic disapproval. Since the discussion in the House of Lords, Sir Robert Peel has intimated an opinion that the proposed See of Manchester would be probably endowed from funds not originally expected to be available, and that the surplus accruing from the union of Bangor and St. Asaph might be applied to the increase of the endow- ments of the smaller livings in North Wales. Considering that the Revenues of the See to be extinguished are derived from Tithes, we wonder how such an appropria- tion as was originally contemplated could under any other plea than necessity have been even suggested. We are still of opinion that, such a plea no longer existing, Bangor and St. Asaph should he maintained in all their I integrity, and that Manchester should be supplied with a Bishop of its own, even with the condition of adding another Spiritual Peer to the Upper House of Parliament. AN attempt has been revived to admit Dissenters to Universities by the aholition of Tests an I Subscriptions. It has, we are happy to say, failed, as we trust such attempts will ever fail, to invade their fundamental prin- ciples, their essential character, and ancient constitution.

U Bankers.—The Union Bank of England. tl Office of the Company— 59, Old Broad-street, London. This Company is formed for the more extensive applica- i ,on and general development of the principles adopted, and lie discoveries made by Messrs. Hislop, Warner, and Co., f Liverpool, tor the distillation of Hollands, Brandies, and j II other spirituous compounds and its objects are sub- litted to the public under circumstances of peculiar advan- ige to the spirit dealers, and of still more extended benefit □ the community at large. S* A discovery has been made in the field of private enter- ?' irize which promises to surpass in value any similar result 11 ,f chemical industry, and to effect so vast, comprehensive, nd admirable a system of distillation, as shall produce every liiul of British spirit of more wholesome character, more licely rectified, and in a higher state of purity, than any 1 pirit that has been hitherto imported, combined with ful- less of flavour perfectly assimilated to the foreign products. n the important matter of price, the British spirit will not .pproach even to one-half of the amount of the foreign. i The British Hollands is literally identical in flavour with he old and long-famed Schcdamthe same oily mellowness, he same pleasant aroma, with more of purity, and of the lighest legal strength. Hollands, as a spirit, has always j! )een deemed a great luxury, but from its price its consump- ion in this country has been confined. It can now, however, )c made as universal, and, in comparison, cheaper than gin, Q vith the advantage of being wholesome in its qualifications, ind not objectionable in repute. The British Hollands will )e sold at líj. per Gallon, while the duty alone is 22s. Cd. ipon that imported from Schedam. With regard to Brandy, the experience of Messrs. Hislop, Warner, and Co., who have resided many years in France 311 terms of intimacy with the principal distillers of Cognac, Hochelle, and Montpelier, enables the company to assert he fact, that the greater portion of brandy imported under :he denomination of Cognac is merely a grain spirit of supe- t ■ior rectification, to which are added certain ingredients to jive that peculiar aroma which has hitherto constituted so itriking a contrast between foreign ann British brandy. All ;he details of the process in question have been studied and t idopted by Hislop, Warner, and Co., with such success, that, is they justly observe, their brandy requires age alone to •ender it equal to any French brandy" ordinarily consumed j n England. I Medical references and testimonials from men of great i scientific acquirements, who have analyzed these compounds, ^ive decided proof of the superiority of this company's spirits over foreign spirits in point of wholesomeness, the former containing no particle of prussic acid, or any delete- rious property peculiar to the spirit which is distilled from the grape, or the Marc de Raisin." The price of the brandies of this company is 18s. per gallon, with a liberal allowance to the trade, while foreign brandy is seldom less than 30s. per gallon. The fact of the works of the company being in full opera- tion at Liverpool, and the spirits fully tested (Ilislop, Warner, and Co., having uniformly invited the trade and public in general to taste and test their Hollands, Brandies, &c., from their store vats), is a sufficient security to the public that the undertaking of the company is neither vision- ary nor speculative; while what has already been effected under the disadvantage of limited resources, justifies the assertion, that it presents wide prospects of success, and the certainty (without possibility of risk) of a per centage in the investment of capital greater than can be acquired in most undertakings of the kind.

We find those veritable gentlemen, one officiating as airman, and the other assuming the title of secretary, of tively engaged with the cabal in fomenting the elements of icorci, circulating charges which they cannot substantiate, d totally regardless of the good old motlo, An It alteram jj ft''™ J«h There cannot be a doubt but the conduct of the. directors ll, upon the forthcoming investigation, be equally as ex- 1'1' Ipable as the charges against tliem have been false and llevolent; and as a corroborative proof of the judicious ercise of their authority in the dismissal of their Pro c.retary, that under the present superintendance the traffic s increased from £ 585 to £i2!) per week, and with the rtainty of a considerable increase if the shareholders only W 0 main true to their oroti interests, and LET WELL ALONE." The directors will I understand, without delay, call a .j-11( eeial meeting of the proprietors; you will then have an ^.u iportunity of selecting five gentlemen ns a committee of l vestigation. I caution you to beware of choosing any one j- those who have no other object in view than driving the -eseiit froi,,Iitei-, 0 esent freighters back to the canal, turning out the directors, -electing the discarded secretary, and eventually the fore- j osing of the line by the mortgagees. j I am, Ladies and Genllemen, IONI Your obedient servant, j?s( ated at my office, 180 miles from Heme Bav, ARGUS. p May 29th, 1843. of ————————————————-——————————————————— Th To lie Let, Prj FURNISHED OR UNFURNISHED, ( VGOOI) FAMILY HOUSE, in CKOCKIIERP.TOWN, l situated in the main thoroughfare, the residence of EWIS REECE, Esq., comprising Dining-room, Breakfast, Th arlour, Ilousekceper's-room, good Kitchens, Cellar, &c., ith Pleasure-ground behind.

JLiLANGONROYD.—DISTRESSING ACCIDENT. —a tew clays ago a poor woman,residing in the parish of Llangonroyd, was preparing to wash her infant child, who was but a few months old; and for that purpose poured some boiling water into a tub, which water she intended cooling, by mixing with it some cold water; hut whilst she was in the act of reaching the jug, containing cold water, the child slipped from off her lap, fell into the tub, and was so dreadfully scalded that it died in a few hours. THE LIVERPOOL Fiiius.-Tlie editors of the several Liverpool papers are much engaged at present in discussing the probable causes of the late h fires at that. port, and the most effectual means for the prevention of similar calamities. Some very judicious remarks on the subject appeared in the Mail of Saturday last. The editor, having stated that "Liver- pool has obtained the unenviable notory of destroying more valuable property by fire than all the towns and seaports of England put together,"proceeds to say, that "if the London Companies, who must have suffered great loss by insuring merchandize there, should demur to anymore risks, he knows not where they could be taken with safety or sustained with- nt bankruptcy. He then goes on to prove that the ware- housing system of the port is deplorably defective, and disgracefully managed, and that all the water in the sea, or what could be extract, d from the bowels of the earth, would not prevent tircs in Liverpool under the present mode of storing merchandize, the construction of the warehouses being defective, and there being 110 classification of the deposits.
